Get Inspired: A Motel Goes Contemporary Condo

It may seem weird to call an old motel room home, but you have to love the relaxed, contemporary style of this motel room turned Hamptons summer home.

As profiled in a New York Timesstory, the motel, built in the 1950s, was converted into condos in 1980. A New York real estate developer and his wife bought one unit, then two more to create the current space.

The look is simple, clean and uncluttered. It's a good look for any space, summer home or not. I love the tripod floor lamp in the main space and the matching contemporary swing arm lamps in the bedroom.
